#GetInvolvedHero – “Jump”

Published

2 minute read

Welcome back! Make sure to read “Community” before jumping in.

“I should do something…” you tell yourself as you lay awake. It was supposed to be the day you started that new… thing. But, the comfort of your bed beats sweating to get up early.

Starting is the scariest part of the successful dream. We can all agree that it is so much easier sitting on that desk, tucked inside our heads and planning the perfect idea. It is simpler to imagine yourself doing that race and winning gold than to get up and train.
“I’m not ready. I’ll wait till everything is perfect. It’s not my fault that things aren’t just right.”

Fear also plays a part in hesitating. Like cement, it weighs you down and makes it harder to soar to your dreams. Perhaps, you doubt your strength or you have seen too many others fail which is disheartening to watch. Perhaps, your whole life you’ve been told that you aren’t good enough or you fear disappointing others. Perhaps, you are afraid of failing those who depend on and trust in you.

The good news is that inertia can help you overcome this cliff. Create inertia through habits and form habits by repetition. With practice, you will leap into the fulfilment of life.

The difference between success and failure is the jump. A losing mindset holds you back, trapping your dreams in the false ruse of impossibility. History teaches us that every pacesetter has taken impossible, bold steps ahead of their time to succeed.

Use this 5-second rule by Mel Robbins to discover the other side of the cliff after jumping:
Imagine what you want to do
Countdown from 5
Do it

Becoming a #GetInvolvedHero requires a leap of faith. Throughout this month we’ll explore ways to spring forth which is important because next month, we will explore “Attitude”.

Elon Musk praises families on X: ‘We should teach fear of childlessness,’ not pregnancy

Published on

From LifeSiteNews

By Stephen Kokx

As fertility rates across the West plummet, Musk has consistently warned about the coming population collapse.

Elon Musk is continuing to spread the word about the importance of families.

On X this week, Musk sounded the alarm in response to a post that claimed birth rates in Sweden and Britain are now at their lowest levels since 1749 and 1938, respectively.

“Instead of teaching fear of pregnancy, we should teach fear of childlessness,” Musk said.

While campaigning for Donald Trump in Pittsburgh this past election cycle, Musk had shared a similar message while speaking to an abortion survivor.

“There’s nothing greater than having a kid,” he said. “I get more joy in my life for my kids than anything else … having a child will make you happier than anything else in your life, ever.”

Musk also used that opportunity to blame schools for “terrifying” girls and women with the idea that “getting pregnant is the end of your life” for why they are not having as many children as they used to, echoing remarks he made to Tucker Carlson in October.

After President-elect Trump’s landslide victory earlier this month, he announced that Musk will lead a new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) with businessman and former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy.

Musk said on X that “either we get government efficient, or America goes bankrupt. That’s what it comes down to.”

As fertility rates across the West plummet, Musk has consistently warned about the coming population collapse. While he has never adopted the true pro-life position, he has pointed to birth control and abortion as contributing factors to the demographic crisis and has also pushed back  against the absurd claims of climate extremists that a reduction in population is necessary for the future of the planet.

“Many men also fear that they will be unable to have ‘fun’ if abortion is outlawed,” he wrote.

Children are “absolutely” one of the most fulfilling things a person can have in life, he said.

“I know three families that have gone to Canada.”: Locals Say Haitians Are Hoofing It Out Of Springfield After Trump Win

Published on

From the Daily Caller News Foundation

‘They Are Afraid’

Haitians living in Springfield, Ohio appear to be fleeing the city in droves after President-elect Donald Trump was declared the winner of the election, according to reports from locals.

The national spotlight shined on Springfield, a city of roughly 60,000 residents nestled in central Ohio, for weeks following unverified viral online claims that Haitians migrants had been spotted butchering a pet for consumption. The subsequent uproar about Springfield sparked further media debate about mass migration and its consequences, as Springfield has been dealing with an influx of Haitian migrants in a relatively short amount of time.

“The traffic situation seems to be better now,” longtime resident Barron Seelig said to the Daily Caller News Foundation, referring to widespread accounts from city residents in past months that Haitian drivers are causing mayhem on the roads.

While Seelig did speak about local rumors of impending Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids possibly scaring Haitians away, he also mentioned recent crackdowns by highway patrol officers and added that some migrants are leaving because they don’t enjoy the Ohio winters. Another Springfield local told the DCNF that he heard it was virtually impossible to rent a U-Haul truck because so many Haitians are currently renting them — presumably to leave town.

Those who provide services to immigrant services in the city have also said that Trump’s election victory has prompted Haitians to flee en masse.

“Some folks don’t have credit cards or access to the internet, and they want to buy a bus ticket or a plane ticket, so we help them book a flight,” Margery Koveleski, who helps Haitian migrants manage government bureaucracy, told The Guardian. “People are leaving.”

“People are fully aware of the election result, and that is why they are leaving; they are afraid of a mass deportation” Jason Payen, a co-founder of the Haitian Community Alliance, said to the Guardian.

“Several of my customers have left. One guy with his family went to New Jersey; others have gone to Boston,” Payen continued. “I know three families that have gone to Canada.”

Trump, for his part, has vowed to embark on a border enforcement agenda that will apply to the entire country.

During the campaign, Trump pledged to continue building the U.S.-Mexico border wall, revive the Remain in Mexico program, hire more border patrol agents and conduct the “largest deportation program in American history,” and end birthright citizenship for those born on U.S. soil to illegal migrant parents.

Trump said in October that he would revoke Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Haitian nationals and “bring them back” to the country. The Biden-Harris administration has provided TPS — which temporarily gives deportation protections to its designees — to hundreds of thousands of Haitian nationals currently living in the U.S.
